About

BIG SMO IN CONCERT:

Country rapper and reality TV star Big Smo combines rock guitars, hip hop production, and working-class themes to arrive at his unique rural rap sound. He's been at it for more than a decade, and his hard work is paying off -- in 2014 his sixth album Kuntry Livin' cracked the Top 10 of both the rap and country charts. A humble performer known for interacting with his concertgoers after the show, Big Smo is quickly becoming a live favorite among fans of down-home country rap. Whether he's busting out originals like "Workin'" or covering the Beastie Boys' classic "(You Gotta) Fight for Your Right (To Party!)", Big Smo always brings plenty of personality and country swagger to the stage on his can't-miss tours.

FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:

Big Smo, a.k.a. John Lee Smith, was born in San Diego but lives on his family farm in Unionville, TN. He began making music in 1999, and in 2002 he released his debut album Kuntry Kitchen. He continued to hone his unique fusion of rap, rock, and country with The Audio Biography in 2003 and Monument Society in 2004, and his high-octane performances in support of the albums earned him a significant regional following.  After releasing two more albums in the late '00s, Smo made his major label debut with 2014's Kuntry Livin'. The album was a critical and commercial success, landing at No. 3 on the rap chart and establishing him as one of country rap's biggest rising stars. Since then Smo has starred in an eponymous reality TV show on A&E that gives viewers an inside look at his life and music. An animated and authentic performer, Big Smo continues to entertain ticket buyers with his rural rap jams every time he hits the road on tour.

    by Bremackrita on 9/22/148 Seconds Saloon - Indianapolis

    He played good a little disappointed he was late and didn't play long but I truely felt he was kind to meet everyone personally and take a free pic with each and every person I've never seen anyone do that and give free autographs to

    A little disappointed!

    by PETTYFIED on 9/22/148 Seconds Saloon - Indianapolis

    I of course like many others, watch Big SMO's show on A&E. My expectations may have been too high but I kept waiting for him to interact with the audience. I felt like he just came out and started playing, no talking, just music. WHICH, not that I didn't enjoy that part, but was hoping to see lots of interaction with all of us like I have seen him do on the show. Like I said, maybe I was expecting too much, maybe that isn't how he "really" is in which case, I am not sure I would follow him as much. I truly do love his music, but I was drawn to him because of his awesome personality, his love for family, country, down home, etc. Wanted to see THAT love from him. All in all, I did enjoy myself!

    Big Smo - The Birchmere

    by 73Gigi73 on 8/4/14Birchmere - Alexandria

    I was a little worried going to an inside venue, but The Birchmere is wonderful. Clean, smokefree, securtiy on site, large flex stage area, just a completely cool vibe. As for the performance... pretty typical of a small band trying to make a name for themselves. They were funny, engaging and down to earth. They sounded great and I really enjoyed when they played some cover songs. Which I felt really showed their singing ability. They came out after the show and talked to their fans, signed autographs and took pictures. Really made my teenagers night.
